It is hard to describe Mi' Amore with words so there are many pictures included in this listing to give interested parties a sense of the beauty and details of both the interior and exterior of this yacht.

Mi' Amore is a Ta Chiao Bros. built ketch with a modified full keel, long overhangs, clipper bow with a wine glass tansom. Her hull is fiberglass laid up in a mold with gelcoat topsides. Her deck is overlaid with teak and feature wood caps rail on long bulwarks. Both her main and mizzen spars are glued up wood with a durable varnish finish.

Mi' Amore's interior is breath taking! Her fit and finish is outstanding as is well established from the very experienced wood working craftsmen of Taiwan. The details from the wood finish, the fabrics, the lighting, the hardware to the overall layout is exceptional. This boat needs to be seen to appreciate the care she continues to receive and the value she represents. To be aboard her is to experience another age of sailing and a very rich level of accommodations and genteel lifestyle.

Please call Richard Nolan for more information or to schedule a viewing of this unique and well cared for yacht. 860-913-7706 cell

Starting at the bow the vessel features a large finished room for sails and gear. With built in lockers and shelves for secure storage. Access to the sail locker is through a deck hatch or doorway in the forward stateroom.

Just aft of this large stowage area is the georgeous owner's stateroom with a full length pullman berth to starboard that pulls out further for additional sleeping area. This stateroom features many built-in lockers, cabinets and drawers and private access to the large head which feature a separate stall shower. The rich cabinetry is contrasted with bright white panels and soft striped wall covering around the many port windows.

The large head is to port and can be accessed directly from the owner's stateroom or from the main salon. It features a large vanity with sink, bright white easy to clean surfaces, a marine head and a large separate stall shower with hot and cold pressure water.

The main salon is just aft the head and owner's stateroom in the widest part of the boat. To starboard is a long settee. Just above the settee are three cabinets for storage and the air conditioning unit for the vessel. To port is the dining area with a three sided settee that converts to a large double berth when the dining table is lowered. Behind the settee are cabinets and shelves for stowage and the beautifully polished ports. A large opening hatch with attached screen doors provides additional ventilation into the salon.

Just forward the starboard settee is the navigation area with an opening chart table and a large quarterberth with additional cabinets and shelves for stowage.
